306W Timing belt
Hello, all..
I’ve got it about half apart, but I was wondering…how loose is too loose for a timing belt? Before disassembling, I was observing needle timing with a 15x1 needle. First couple of spins it would hit the hook case, then it was fine (all turning by hand). The belt seems really loose…like a good 1/2” deflection. Had no issues taking it off of the sprocket.
Couldn’t find a spec for it on the online service manual. Anybody have any insight? Planning on replacing it regardless, just curious.
